As far as the Commissioner of Police is concerned there were no Mexican's in attendance. That's the info he got from Commanding officer Chris Noble. He told us how that conversation went earlier today.
Chester Williams, Commissioner of Police
"You know we have heard all sorts of allegations and the easiest thing to do is to make allegations but when we have allegations that is not substantiated with evidence then there is little we can do. I have heard the allegations myself and I personally contacted the officer in charge of San Pedro, Mr. Noble and I asked him the question and Mr. Noble assured me that there were no Mexicans at the tournament. As a matter of fact, he said on the day in question that they did get information that Mexicans were in the tournament and he personally went to check the individuals who they were saying were Mexicans and they were Belizeans so as to where this information is coming from, I don't know. I can also tell you that the coast guard were out at sea ensuring that there was no breach of the border water ways between Xcalak and San Pedro, so if it is that Mexicans were there, I can't say but going by what I have been briefed from Mr. Noble and from what I have heard from the coast guard I don't see how Mexican could be there but if anyone has any evidences to show that Mexican were there please for Christ sake bring it forward and stop making speculations or accusations without proof."
